Join the Organization for Autism Research team!
The team at OAR is made up of a small, dynamic team of passionate individuals, working towards making a meaningful impact on the lives of autistic individuals and their supporters. Opportunities to join the OAR staff are limited and all open positions will be posted below. Anyone interested in joining our team is welcome to inquire anytime by submitting a cover letter describing your interest and a resume.
While openings on the staff and internships are infrequent, we offer volunteer opportunities year-round.
We are a team of passionate staff members based in Arlington, VA. As a new addition to OAR, you’ll get to work alongside colleagues that each leverage their passion, skills, and expertise to help promote OAR’s impact and reach.
Any open positions will be posted here.
OAR’s internship program provides college and graduate students with the chance to gain valuable experience in a dynamic, nonprofit environment. We seek individuals who are passionate about autism, detail-oriented, and strategic thinkers. Interns work closely with staff on meaningful projects that benefit the autism community and support OAR’s mission.
While OAR is not a clinical setting, interns engage with the autism community through educational outreach and program support. Interns do not provide interventions, conduct original research, or interact with families directly.
Please see the Open Positions section above for active internship opportunities.
As a small non-profit, we rely on the dedication of talented volunteers to support the autism community.
We offer a diverse range of service opportunities for volunteers of all ages and abilities. Contribute to our advocacy, education, or fundraising efforts. Engage with your local community or connect with the autism community online. Learn about the different ways you can get involved!
